Postoperative Warming Blankets

Warming blankets maintain a patient’s ideal body temperature before surgery and after surgery in the recovery room. At these critical times, patients are more susceptible to hypothermia related complications which can dramatically impact their health and healing.

The use of Warming Blankets eliminates potentially lethal complications in patients such as surgical site infections, altered drug metabolism, impaired blood clotting, and cardiovascular issues. Hypothermia causes the extremities to become cold due to vascular constriction. Soft-Flex Warming Covers provide direct warmth to these extremities through a controlled convective warming process, allowing them to dilate.

Warming Covers are designed to maximize patient comfort, diminish anxiety, and greatly reduce the likelihood of hypothermia-related complications. Warming Blankets are commonly found in EMS and PACU environments due to their efficient and effective ability to regulate patient temperature.
